Autumn felts




As autumn pulls closer I am now working more with warmer fabrics, and although I still have the last of my summer weddings this weekend, one of my window displays is of a little felt 40's inspired hat worn with a hat elastic and trimmed in Liberty of London tana lawn cotton print.
I have used a vintage buckle to create a tail of fabric that spills out over the eye.
Liberty tana lawn is so fine it's almost like silk and so will drape very well on any base.
I am making lots of new pill box hats and everyday cloches ready for those cooler days ahead.

  1. Oh that hat is gorgeous! I've had word that the 'Liberty place' should be getting some new stock in in about 5 weeks or so :)
